Students will be viewing this page in a two day session and will have an opportunity to refresh and recap what they have already discussed and learned in order to grasp, retain, and understand more about the events that Cherokees were subjected to along the trail. There will also be ten minute breaks in between the video clips for class discussions.






A trail that was riddled with cold, thirst, hunger, starvation, disease, destruction, and the death of thousands and thousands of Cherokee Indians.
